Remove the sign honoring the racist group The Black Panther Party

The Issue

We the people call on the City Council of Winston-Salem, North Carolina to remove the a sign located at the northeast corner of Martin Luther King Jr. Drive and East Fifth Street.

Two weeks ago leader former leader of the Black Panther Party along with members of the Black Panther Party were in Charleston, South Carolina and in his speech he called for the killing of "crackers" (White People" and for the killing of "The children of slave owners"Modern descendants of slave owners".

We the people feel that it is not in the best interest of the City of Winston-Salem or the state of North Carolina to honor such a racist and violent organization
